Ok it has been awhile since I have written. :-( It just seems like time gets away sometimes around here. We have been busy with "normal" stuff and then working on Valentine's stuff. We are making things for all the grandparents (hope to have in the mail tomorrow) and teachers. Then N has to write his name on 12 (Eagle Preschool) plus 9 (Pierce Park) valentines (Superman) and add suckers to them. Then N has snack week next week so have to come up with some snack ideas. Weds is easy b/c it is the Valentine party and another mom is bringing cupcakes to decorate so we will bring the stuff to decorate with.
Let's see things that are new. E can count to 13 now. She hardly takes naps now...which means I will probably need to give up the job from home...we shall see what the next week holds. She seems to have stopped growing for a little bit. :-) She is done being sick too it looks like.
N is loving school. Last week he was not happy on Thursday when I told him I couldn't take him to school b/c I was too sick. He hates missing school...which is a great thing! I think he has started to go through a growth spurt b/c he has started eating tons and sleeping in! Can you believe this morning he slept until about 7:10!!! He had been sleeping until 6:30 the rest of the week. This is great for me and M! Except for M misses seeing them in the morning before leaving for work. I was noticing at school too that he is great cutting with the scissors! Everyday I realize something that he is doing that makes it so he is growing up.
It will be fun at Valentine's day b/c the kids are getting a little "tool" carrier. It is actually a miniature of my scrapping tools. So they can have their own "tools" for doing art projects. Figure they will get enough candy from everything else going on that we don't need to add to it. :-)
We got all of our furniture now!! We got it delivered before the superbowl on Sunday. We love it! I will have to take a picture and post it. Love sitting in the chair w/ottoman to read a book. Like M said the ottoman will probably be the first thing worn out. Which is probably right since the kids love it. N has ended up in a few time outs for running and jumping onto the furniture. M said that Tuesday night when I was gone at work N said look daddy. He then took a run and jumped up and landed flat on his stomach on the ottoman. Then turned around and smiled at M. But as soon as he saw the look on M's face he started to frown...he couldn't figure it out but knew it was bad. :-) It's funny though. The kids don't run and jump on the furniture during the day but there is atleast one time at night that someone gets in trouble with M. :-)
I will have to update some pictures on here in the next couple of days just b/c of how much the kids seem to be growing. M and I don't notice it as much but others do.
Weather - it has been sunny and on the warmer side (upper 40's-lower 50's) but we are still on a yellow air quality. I think that is why M and I can't quite get over these coughs/colds. We only have the cough really left and then a little tiredness. Supposedly we are to get rain today...which I am hoping is right b/c it would help clear out the air!!! This crud is going all thru Boise and it sucks! It seems to last two weeks or longer with everyone. Which doesn't help for spreading it. I am just hoping that we don't get it again! Making sure things are sanitized and kids washing their hands...hoping that will be enough to keep it away. Yea!! Just looked outside and it is raining. :-)
Ok time to go get started this morning. Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
